Why not check out a WordCamp! WordCamps are locally-organized casual conferences of, by, and for WordPress users, developers, and enthusiasts just like you. The focus of a WordCamp is to foster face-to-face connections and collaboration among the local WordPress crowd, but there are usually some out-of-towners there as well. Here are the WordCamps that have been approved so far for the summer:</p>\n<p>April 16: <a href=\"http://wordcampseattle.org/\">WordCamp Seattle</a> in Seattle, WA. This weekend! After taking a year off, WordCamp Seattle is back with tracks for bloggers, designers, and developers. This year they&#8217;ll feature a lineup including presentations by both local speakers and visitors like core committer Andrew Nacin, as well as an Ignite session of lightning talks at the end of the day.</p>\n<p>May 5: <a href=\"http://wordcampdevelopers.com/\">WordCamp Vancouver (Developer Edition)</a> in Vancouver, BC. This one-day WordCamp is aimed purely at developers working on the WordPress platform, and will not have content aimed at bloggers (as previous Vancouver WordCamps have). I predict we will start seeing more of these types of niche WordCamps moving forward, because they will mean smaller, more intimate events that allow more collaboration (and make it easier to find venues!). Note that we&#8217;re working with the organizers to get the tickets to a more reasonable price, so keep your eyes open this week if you&#8217;ve held off on buying a ticket because of the price tag.</p>\n<p>May 7: <a href=\"http://wordcamp-switzerland.ch/\">WordCamp Switzerland</a> in Brugg, Switzerland. This one will cover a wide range of topics, including getting started with WordPress, advanced development topics, BuddyPress, and an inside look at running a WordPress-based business.</p>\n<p>May 14: <a href=\"http://www.ocwordcamp.com/\">WordCamp Orange County</a> in Orange, CA. Already sold out! Orange County had their first WordCamp last year, and the organizers have put together another great event this time around.</p>\n<p>May 14: <a href=\"http://paris14mai2011.wordcamp.fr/\">WordCamp Paris</a> in Paris, France. One of the last true unconference-style WordCamps, the Paris group will plan their schedule the morning of the event like they do at BarCamps. WordCamp Paris had one of the best WordCamp t-shirts ever a couple of years ago. And it&#8217;s in Paris in the spring.</p>\n<p>May 21–22: <a href=\"http://wordcampraleigh.com/\">WordCamp Raleigh</a> in Raleigh, NC. Repeat organizers from the Raleigh WordPress Meetup Group are just starting to select speakers and put together their plans, but if it is anything like last year, the venue will be packed with WordPress professionals (and maybe there will be cookies). I&#8217;ll be attending this one, as will Nacin.</p>\n<p>June 4–5: <a href=\"http://2011.reno.wordcamp.org/\">WordCamp Reno-Lake Tahoe</a> in Reno, NV. Organized by a WordPress core UI group contributor, WordCamp Reno-Lake Tahoe is taking place in Reno and has a packed schedule full of visiting experts.</p>\n<p>June 11–12: <a href=\"http://www.wckansascity.org/\">WordCamp Kansas City</a> in Overland Park, KS. With publisher, designer, and developer tracks, Kansas City&#8217;s WordCamp will have a little something for everyone, presented in large part by local speakers.</p>\n<p>June 17–19: <a href=\"http://wordcampcolumbus.com/\">WordCamp Columbus</a> in Columbus, OH. WordCamp Columbus has a new organizer this year and is bringing the focus more firmly onto WordPress (and less on social media). Their 3-day event includes an entire day for newbies, and another for non-profits, a nice addition to the usual blogger/developer tracks.</p>\n<p>July 9–10: <a href=\"http://wcmtl.org/\">WordCamp Montreal</a> in Montreal, Quebec. This group consistently puts on a great every year. If you register now, you can still get a $10 discount and get both days for only $30 (with sessions in both English and French to reflect the bilingual nature of the city). Montreal plays host to a number of <a href=\"http://www.montreal.com/tourism/festivals/index.html\">festivals</a> throughout the year, and this weekend is no different, including festivals for the arts, comedy, tango, and even circus arts.</p>\n<p>July 16: <a href=\"http://2011.sandiego.wordcamp.org/\">WordCamp San Diego</a> in San Diego, CA. First WordCamp in San Diego! They have talking about this for over a year, and are now starting to really ramp up the planning. They&#8217;re finalizing their venue right now, and I would expect a great roster of speakers.</p>\n<p>July 16-17: <a href=\"http://wiki.wordcampuk.org/Main_Page\">WordCamp Portsmouth</a> in Portsmouth, UK. The annual WordCamp UK that moves from city to city each year alights this year in Portsmouth.

You can find us in those spaces by following the numbered banners hanging from the ceiling.</em></p>\n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:36:\"http://wellformedweb.org/CommentAPI/\";a:1:{s:10:\"commentRss\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:48:\"http://wordpress.org/news/2011/03/sxsw2011/feed/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:38:\"http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/slash/\";a:1:{s:8:\"comments\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:1:\"0\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:4;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:41:\"\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n				\n\n		\n		\n			\n			\n		\n		\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:5:{s:0:\"\";a:7:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:26:\"WordPress 3.1, lots of fun\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:43:\"http://wordpress.org/news/2011/02/threeone/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:8:\"comments\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:52:\"http://wordpress.org/news/2011/02/threeone/#comments\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Wed, 23 Feb 2011 14:00:54 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:8:\"category\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:8:\"Releases\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:33:\"http://wordpress.org/news/?p=1704\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:1:{s:0:\"\";a:1:{s:11:\"isPermaLink\";s:5:\"false\";}}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:388:\"The long-awaited fourteenth release of WordPress is now available.

Version 3.1 is <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/download/\">available for download</a>, or you can <a href=\"http://codex.wordpress.org/Dashboard_Updates_SubPanel\">update from within your dashboard</a>.</p>\n<p>This release features a lightning fast <strong>redesigned linking workflow</strong> which makes it easy to link to your existing posts and pages, an <strong>admin bar</strong> so you&#8217;re never more than a click away from your most-used dashboard pages, a <strong>streamlined writing interface</strong> that hides many of the seldom-used panels by default to create a simpler and less intimidating writing experience for new bloggers (visit Screen Options in the top right to get old panels back), and a <strong>refreshed blue admin scheme</strong> available for selection under your personal options.</p>\n<p>There&#8217;s a bucket of candy for developers as well, including our new <strong>Post Formats support</strong> which makes it easy for themes to create portable tumblelogs with different styling for different types of posts, <strong>new CMS capabilities</strong> like archive pages for custom content types, a <strong>new Network Admin</strong>, an overhaul of the import and export system, and the ability to perform<strong> advanced taxonomy and custom fields queries</strong>.</p>\n<p>With the 3.1 release, <strong>WordPress is more of a CMS than ever before</strong>. The only limit to what you can build is your imagination.</p>\n<p>(No video yet for 3.1, we&#8217;re going to add it later.)</p>\n<h3>By the Numbers</h3>\n<p>There were over <strong>two thousand commits</strong> to the codebase in the 3.1 cycle! For a more comprehensive look at everything that has improved in 3.1, check out <a href=\"http://codex.wordpress.org/Version_3.1\">3.1’s Codex page</a> or the <a href=\"http://core.trac.wordpress.org/query?status=closed&amp;resolution=fixed&amp;milestone=3.1&amp;group=status&amp;desc=1&amp;order=priority\">more than 820 closed issues in Trac</a>.</p>\n<p>Now is the time to drop by our development channels if you are interested in being involved with 3.2, as the agenda will be under discussion shortly. We&#8217;re hoping to get the 3.2 release out in a shorter development cycle (3.1 took too long) and include some fun improvements around plugins and the speed of the admin. (Don&#8217;t worry, we&#8217;re still planning <a href=\"http://www.djangoproject.com/\">on using PHP</a>.)</p>\n<h3>We&#8217;re All in This Together</h3>\n<p>WordPress is the result of the combined effort of people from all over the world united with a common goal: to make the best darn web software for publishing your story on the web and sharing it with the world.

If you attempt to leverage new components of the API, you are pretty much guaranteeing that your plugins will break in a future release, so please don&#8217;t do that. <img src=\'http://wordpress.org/news/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif\' alt=\':-)\' class=\'wp-smiley\' />  We hope to enable all the fun new goodies for public use in a future release.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>This is the only way we could prevent any regressions in functionality and usability from WordPress 3.0 to 3.1. That&#8217;s right, users and plugin authors can still do everything you used to be able to do (and a little bit more).</p>\n<p>Because of the code churn between RC2 and RC3, <strong>this release candidate needs a lot of testing</strong>. Every list screen needs testing. In particular, the comment moderation screen needs testing, especially with keyboard shortcuts (if you didn&#8217;t know about those, now&#8217;s your chance to try them out).</p>\n<p>Other fixes in RC3 include:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Properly display the author dropdown in Quick Edit</li>\n<li>Various important fixes to numerous taxonomy query variables</li>\n<li>Fixes to the theme deletion process</li>\n<li>Fixes to pages used for posts</li>\n<li>IIS and Multisite: Avoid resetting web.config on permalink save</li>\n<li>Properly validate post formats and their rewrite rules</li>\n</ul>\n<p>I&#8217;m assembling a group of friends in Washington, D.C., this weekend to test WordPress 3.1 and provide feedback. We&#8217;d love to see this idea catch on among friends at coffee shops around the world. (We&#8217;ll blog our results, and we&#8217;re thinking about using the hashtag #wptest on Twitter.) If you are testing the release candidate and think you&#8217;ve found a bug, there are a few ways to let us know:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Post it to the <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/support/forum/alphabeta/\">Alpha/Beta area in the support forums</a></li>\n<li>Report it to the <a href=\"http://lists.automattic.com/mailman/listinfo/wp-testers\">wp-testers mailing list</a></li>\n<li>Join the development IRC channel and tell us live at irc.freenode.net #wordpress-dev</li>\n<li>File a bug ticket on the <a href=\"http://core.trac.wordpress.org/\">WordPress Trac</a></li>\n</ul>\n<p>To test WordPress 3.1, try the <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-beta-tester/\">WordPress Beta Tester plugin</a> (you&#8217;ll want &#8220;bleeding edge nightlies&#8221;).

new update of WordPress for Android is now available in Android Market. We&#8217;re pleased to introduce version 1.4, which adds some very powerful features! Here&#8217;s what&#8217;s new:</p>\n<h3>Post Scheduling</h3>\n<p><img class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-385\" title=\"wp-android-setdate\" src=\"http://wpandroid.files.wordpress.com/2011/04/wp-android-setdate.jpg?w=244&h=175\" alt=\"\" width=\"244\" height=\"175\" /></p>\n<p>You can now easily set the publish date and time in the app when creating a post or page. The date can be set to the future which will set the post status to &#8216;Scheduled&#8217; and publish on your blog when the time arrives. You can also edit existing posts and tweak the published date and time if desired.</p>\n<h3>Post Password</h3>\n<p><img class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-384\" title=\"wp-android-postpassword\" src=\"http://wpandroid.files.wordpress.com/2011/04/wp-android-postpassword.jpg?w=244&h=146\" alt=\"\" width=\"244\" height=\"146\" /></p>\n<p>At the bottom of the post editor we&#8217;ve added a Post Password field to help protect your content. Simply enter a password here and the post will require that the password be entered for viewing on the blog when published. You can also add or remove a password from published posts as well.</p>\n<h3>HTTP Authentication Support</h3>\n<p><img class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-383\" title=\"wp-android-httppswd\" src=\"http://wpandroid.files.wordpress.com/2011/04/wp-android-httppswd.jpg?w=244&h=197\" alt=\"\" width=\"244\" height=\"197\" /></p>\n<p>Is your self-hosted blog protected with an HTTP Authentication username and password? We&#8217;ve added support for entering the Authentication credentials in the blog settings so that you can manage your blog through the app. To access the Authentication settings, add a self-hosted blog to the app and select &#8216;Optional Settings&#8217; in the setup area. </p>\n<h3>Additional Changes</h3>\n<p>We&#8217;ve tidied up a few more things in the 1.4 update, including:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Added secure password storage to the local database.</li>\n<li>&#8216;Unapproved&#8217; comments now have a yellow tint.</li>\n<li>Added &#8216;Today&#8217; option in stats.</li>\n<li>Fixed crash when alert dialog was trying to be shown after the app was closed.</li>\n<li>Fixed crash related to large post ID values.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Remember, WordPress for Android is an Open Source project.

Why not check out a WordCamp! WordCamps are locally-organized casual conferences of, by, and for WordPress users, developers, and enthusiasts just like you. The focus of a WordCamp is to foster face-to-face connections and collaboration among the local WordPress crowd, but there are usually some out-of-towners there as well. Here are the WordCamps that have been approved so far for the summer:</p>\n<p>April 16: <a href=\"http://wordcampseattle.org/\">WordCamp Seattle</a> in Seattle, WA. This weekend! After taking a year off, WordCamp Seattle is back with tracks for bloggers, designers, and developers. This year they&#8217;ll feature a lineup including presentations by both local speakers and visitors like core committer Andrew Nacin, as well as an Ignite session of lightning talks at the end of the day.</p>\n<p>May 5: <a href=\"http://wordcampdevelopers.com/\">WordCamp Vancouver (Developer Edition)</a> in Vancouver, BC. This one-day WordCamp is aimed purely at developers working on the WordPress platform, and will not have content aimed at bloggers (as previous Vancouver WordCamps have). I predict we will start seeing more of these types of niche WordCamps moving forward, because they will mean smaller, more intimate events that allow more collaboration (and make it easier to find venues!). Note that we&#8217;re working with the organizers to get the tickets to a more reasonable price, so keep your eyes open this week if you&#8217;ve held off on buying a ticket because of the price tag.</p>\n<p>May 7: <a href=\"http://wordcamp-switzerland.ch/\">WordCamp Switzerland</a> in Brugg, Switzerland. This one will cover a wide range of topics, including getting started with WordPress, advanced development topics, BuddyPress, and an inside look at running a WordPress-based business.</p>\n<p>May 14: <a href=\"http://www.ocwordcamp.com/\">WordCamp Orange County</a> in Orange, CA. Already sold out! Orange County had their first WordCamp last year, and the organizers have put together another great event this time around.</p>\n<p>May 14: <a href=\"http://paris14mai2011.wordcamp.fr/\">WordCamp Paris</a> in Paris, France. One of the last true unconference-style WordCamps, the Paris group will plan their schedule the morning of the event like they do at BarCamps. WordCamp Paris had one of the best WordCamp t-shirts ever a couple of years ago. And it&#8217;s in Paris in the spring.</p>\n<p>May 21–22: <a href=\"http://wordcampraleigh.com/\">WordCamp Raleigh</a> in Raleigh, NC. Repeat organizers from the Raleigh WordPress Meetup Group are just starting to select speakers and put together their plans, but if it is anything like last year, the venue will be packed with WordPress professionals (and maybe there will be cookies). I&#8217;ll be attending this one, as will Nacin.</p>\n<p>June 4–5: <a href=\"http://2011.reno.wordcamp.org/\">WordCamp Reno-Lake Tahoe</a> in Reno, NV. Organized by a WordPress core UI group contributor, WordCamp Reno-Lake Tahoe is taking place in Reno and has a packed schedule full of visiting experts.</p>\n<p>June 11–12: <a href=\"http://www.wckansascity.org/\">WordCamp Kansas City</a> in Overland Park, KS. With publisher, designer, and developer tracks, Kansas City&#8217;s WordCamp will have a little something for everyone, presented in large part by local speakers.</p>\n<p>June 17–19: <a href=\"http://wordcampcolumbus.com/\">WordCamp Columbus</a> in Columbus, OH. WordCamp Columbus has a new organizer this year and is bringing the focus more firmly onto WordPress (and less on social media). Their 3-day event includes an entire day for newbies, and another for non-profits, a nice addition to the usual blogger/developer tracks.</p>\n<p>July 9–10: <a href=\"http://wcmtl.org/\">WordCamp Montreal</a> in Montreal, Quebec. This group consistently puts on a great every year. If you register now, you can still get a $10 discount and get both days for only $30 (with sessions in both English and French to reflect the bilingual nature of the city). Montreal plays host to a number of <a href=\"http://www.montreal.com/tourism/festivals/index.html\">festivals</a> throughout the year, and this weekend is no different, including festivals for the arts, comedy, tango, and even circus arts.</p>\n<p>July 16: <a href=\"http://2011.sandiego.wordcamp.org/\">WordCamp San Diego</a> in San Diego, CA. First WordCamp in San Diego! They have talking about this for over a year, and are now starting to really ramp up the planning. They&#8217;re finalizing their venue right now, and I would expect a great roster of speakers.</p>\n<p>July 16-17: <a href=\"http://wiki.wordcampuk.org/Main_Page\">WordCamp Portsmouth</a> in Portsmouth, UK. The annual WordCamp UK that moves from city to city each year alights this year in Portsmouth. This one is notable because Mike Little, co-founder of WordPress, is part of the organizing team.</p>\n<p>July 23–24: <a href=\"http://wordcampboston.com/\">WordCamp Boston</a> in Boston, MA.

To get a good feel for the app&#8217;s intended functionality, check out the screenshots we have in the gallery below.</p><p>The apps will work in conjunction with the Espresso&#8217;s ticket QR codes, via the add-on they released <a title=\"Event Espresso QR code ticketing add-on\" href=\"http://eventespresso.com/2011/01/customizable-printable-event-tickets-qr-code/\">earlier this year</a>, by scanning the codes at the door to check in attendees.</p><p>Development on the apps <a title=\"Event Espresso app development begins\" href=\"http://eventespresso.com/2011/02/iphone-android-onsite-check-in-app-development/\">began</a> a couple of months ago.

This is episode #1, and I&#8217;m your host Ryan Imel.</p><p>On today&#8217;s show we have a new WordCamp coming up, an update on Theme Madness, and a new record for WPCandy. Let&#8217;s get to it.</p><p>Big news this week, WordPress All in One for Dummies is now available. This is another WordPress book authored by Lisa Sabin-Wilson, the author of WordPress for Dummies, though this time she is joined by Cory Miller of iThemes, Kevin Palmer of Convertiv, Andrea Rennick of WPeBooks, and Michael Torbert of All in One SEO Pack. The book is currently available through Amazon, but will hit brick and mortar retailers on the 19th.</p><p>WPCandy&#8217;s own Theme Madness tournament is underway this month. For those who don&#8217;t know, Theme Madness is our game to determine the best WordPress theme vendor out there. Or at least, to determine which one can rally the most support. We are working through a bracket with 64 teams, and are currently wrapping up Round 1. Be sure to visit the WPCandy blog to see who wins the hand made WPCandy trophy.</p><p>WordCamp Seattle is happening this weekend, on Saturday. There are three tracks, a User Track, a Theming Track, and a Development Track. The special guest will be Alex King of Crowd Favorite, who will be interviewed at the end of the day by Nick Ohrn about his WordPress business success. Well, the other special guests will be the WPCandy crew, who will be there and liveblogging the whole thing, so you won&#8217;t miss any of the good stuff.</p><p>Big thanks to The Theme Foundry who powered us to attend WordCamp Seattle this year. Of course, The Theme Foundry isn&#8217;t the only one who can power WPCandy. Believe it or not, anyone can. See, at WPCandy we don&#8217;t take advertisers. Instead, we use a system where the community itself powers us. You can power a post, a day of content, a trip to a WordCamp, or simple a $5 monthly subscription. Every little bit helps us do what we do, and keep our content ad free. Head over to wpcandy.com/is/powered if you&#8217;re interested in helping us out.</p><p>We&#8217;ll be right back after this ad &#8212; no, I&#8217;m kidding. We don&#8217;t have those, remember?</p><p>Page.ly cofounder Joshua Strebel contributed an editorial to WPCandy last week, talking about how he has heard Tumblr described as having some of the strengths that WordPress has, and what that could mean. Be sure to read his editorial, and the 70 or so odd comments that follow. His editorial landed on Hacker News for a bit over the weekend, bringing in almost 8,000 uniques for us, a new daily traffic record. Thanks everyone, it&#8217;s exciting to see the site growing this way.</p><p>There were a number of interesting videos added to the site this week.</p><ul><li>The pre-launch webinar for Allure Themes was posted &#8212; Allure Themes will be WordPress themes for the ladies. And for me.</li><li>A video interview with Adii Pienaar of WooThemes</li><li>Collis Ta&#8217;eed of Envato was interviewed on Mixergy, and we have that posted</li><li>Jason Shuller of Press75 and Theme Garden was interview about web design on Freelance Jam.</li><li>And we have the time-lapsed video, the making of an Obox theme, as well.</li></ul><p>All of those videos can be found at wpcandy.com/watches.</p><p>That&#8217;s it for this week. Don&#8217;t forget to follow WPCandy on Twitter, friend us on Facebook, and if you&#8217;re feeling bold, power WPCandy so we can keep doing what we love. Have a good one, we&#8217;ll see you next week.</p></div><div class=\"tentblogger-rss-footer\"><p>You just finished reading <a href=\"http://wpcandy.com/?p=16893\">The WPCandy Show, episode 1: \"One is the loneliest number\"</a> on <a href=\"http://wpcandy.com\" title=\"WPCandy WordPress community news\">WPCandy</a>.

Individual themes are available for $50 each, though the bundle of all themes is still around for just $200, down from the previous $250 price tag. Mini-bundles were also teased, though no details are available yet regarding just what these will include.</p><p>The team stresses that individual theme sales include support, updates, child themes, and access to their icon set, same as the previous bundle did. Liam McKay described the reasons for the decision on their blog:</p><blockquote><p>From the start of the project we’ve had a lot of people requesting individual theme sales. We’ve never been against the idea, but there was a few reasons why we didn’t feel right doing this, one of which was our name! It felt strange moving away from bundles, because of that, but we understand the demand and need for cheaper options.</p></blockquote><p>The announcement also included the news that WPBundle is no longer partnering with WooThemes.</p><p><span id=\"more-16721\"></span></p><p>McKay says there are no hard feelings over the split, but that with the new direction WPBundle is headed WooThemes &#8220;didn&#8217;t want to be part of the new direction as they have to focus their attention on their own products.&#8221; WPBundle will now use their own sales and support system, which they are in the process of implementing now.</p><p>Also, have a read through our past WPBundle coverage: WPBundle is one of the first WordPress shops that we were able to watch pretty much from <a title=\"WPCandy coverage of WPBundle\" href=\"http://wpcandy.com/covers/wpbundle\">when they began</a>.</p><p>While we&#8217;re on this topic, what is your stance on theme pricing? Do you prefer buying in bulk via a bundle or a membership, or buying individual themes? If you were calling the shots, what would you say? Where&#8217;s the sweet spot between profitability and user friendliness?</p><div class=\"tentblogger-rss-footer\"><p>You just finished reading <a href=\"http://wpcandy.com/?p=16721\">WPBundle unbundles, offers new pricing structure, and separates from WooThemes</a> on <a href=\"http://wpcandy.com\" title=\"WPCandy WordPress community news\">WPCandy</a>.

The new site collects coupons for various WordPress theme, plugin, and other products that folks might want to save some money on. The launch post on WPBeginner explains the thought process behind the new blog:</p><blockquote><p>The idea behind <a href=\"http://coupons.wpbeginner.com/\">WPBeginner coupons</a> is to keep our community updated with exclusive deals that may be going on around the web. Let’s face it, we are all way too busy to keep track with every single useful discount deal. I know when I miss a deal, I say to myself “dang-it, I wish someone told me about this deal before”. But sadly, there is no coupon site within the WordPress industry that can do that. Plus, keeping track of these deals is no one-man job. Therefore, our editorial staff will keep our eyes and ears out to keep you posted on cool deals.</p></blockquote><p>WPBeginner is also welcoming any owners of WordPress products to get in touch with them about sharing a discounts on their new site. Inidividual coupons can also be submitted by anyone browsing using their submission form.</p><p>The launch brings WPBeginner&#8217;s network to three sites strong (this, their blog, and their WordPress sites gallery).</p><p><span id=\"more-16637\"></span></p><p><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-16706\" title=\"WPBeginner Top Rated Coupons\" src=\"http://wpcandy.com/files/2011/04/Screen-shot-2011-04-08-at-11.01.26-AM.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"303\" height=\"322\" /></p><p>Are you excited to see a WordPress version of <a title=\"RetailMeNot\" href=\"http://www.retailmenot.com/\">RetailMeNot</a> hit the <em>interwebs</em>?
